The price of the A7C full-frame mirrorless camera has been falling steadily in the last couple of months - but as often is the case, you need to pick the right colour option to get the best deal. The all-black option is currently a much better bargain than the silver option - and we have just spotted this great offer on the camera with its kit lens for just £1,260.63 at Amazon - saving you over £330 off the recommended retail price
Sure, there is a more recent Sony A7C II camera now on sale, but with its boost in resolution and tweaks to the autofocus, this is a much more expensive proposition (see our Sony A7C vs A7C II comparison for full rundown of differences)

Featuring a back-illuminated design, the A7C's full-frame 24.2-megapixel Exmor R CMOS sensor works with Sony's BIONZ X image processor to offer high-resolution stills and video while minimizing noise and improving speed.
The sensor and processor within the Sony A7C combined enables fast continuous shooting of up to 10 fps at full resolution, for approximately consecutive JPEGs or 115 consecutive RAW files, and with full-time AF/AE when working with either a mechanical shutter or an electronic shutter.
Despite the sleek stature of the A7C, it features a 5-stop effective 5-axis SteadyShot image stabilization system that compensates for various types of camera shake encountered during handheld shooting of stills and video. This allows users to confidently use any lens, even adapted lenses, for critical imaging without encountering blur from camera shake.
For long focal lengths, the system will correct for pitch and yaw adjustments. Macro and high-magnification imagery, on the other hand, will benefit from the inclusion of horizontal and vertical shift compensation. All shooting styles will get usage out of the roll compensation and all 5-axes of stabilization will function at all times, even when used with third-party lenses and adapters or lenses with built-in optical stabilization.
